Coffee

Oh how I love (and require that caffeine hit) a good coffee. We (well I especially) have become partial to a take-away coffee most mornings on my way to school class time, swimming, the beach, the park.

What was I going to do next year? And really I should be reducing our spending now too. We looked at coffee machines, but so expensive. I didn't want to take our pod machine, while so convenient and fast - there is no ritual in it and the taste isn't there. I also loved the idea of purchasing different beans on our way around - I love forming memories about places not just from my vision. To remember a place from the coffee I had each morning, sounded beautiful.

Dave put us onto the Aeropress. I LOVE it. I love the process. Measuring the beans, hand grinding them, boiling the kettle, frothing the milk, plunging. And we can try all sorts of beans. Currently we have the cafĂ© round the corner favourite - Toby's Estate.
